The PGA Tour bounced out of Florida and over to Texas for two stops before the Masters. The first, this week’s Texas Children’s Houston Open, offered a $9.9 million total purse with $1.782 million to the winner.

Gary Woodland is taking home that big check, his first since the 2019 U.S. Open, after a wildly popular win at Memorial Park. The 41-year-old had surgery in September 2023 to remove a lesion on his brand and has been outspoken this year about battling PTSD in the wake of that. And now he is a winner on the PGA Tour for the fifth time and heading to the Masters in two weeks. What a story.

Here are the final payouts for the 2026 Houston Open.
